FAQ / Benefits of Microneedling
Every treatment we offer is personalized to your unique situation and needs
Microneedling and facial acupuncture naturally restore the skin by boosting collagen and elastin production and increasing circulation leading to reduced lines, smoother skin, and a brighter face. Microneedling and facial acupuncture use holistic methods to restore skin health without the use of toxins or harsh chemicals.
Microneedling causes micro pricks to the skin and triggers healing mechanisms. That area of skin will build more collagen and elastin as it is renewed and leave the skin with a more even tone and softer texture. You can see results in as little as two weeks! It is recommended to schedule 1 micro needling session per month for 4-6 months and results may last 5 years.
During a microneedling session numbing cream will be applied then allowed to absorb for 5-10 minutes. Excess numbing cream will be removed and the desired area will be swabbed with an ethyl alcohol and water mixture to sanitize. Our Super Serum (vegan, collagen based primer) will be applied in small sections before the micro needling process has started. We finish off with our Tranquil Toner (an aloe based toner) that will help to soothe the skin and decrease redness. Aftercare instructions are given and a next appointment will be scheduled! Appointments last 30-45 minutes.
Most commonly microneedling is used on the face, but it can also be used on the hands, chest, arms, and legs.

During microneedling we use a device that vibrates at 18,000rpms and a disposable cartridge with 16 tiny needles and works best to smooth skin, reduce fine lines, and even skin tone. During acupuncture for facial rejuvenation we use specialty acupuncture needles and focuses on deep lines, toning muscles, and providing lift.
While you may see results in as little as 3-4 treatments, the most noticeable results will happen after 6 treatments. Microneedling and acupuncture for facial rejuvenation is holistic medicine and naturally boosts collagen, elastin, and circulation in the face. While it may take longer to see results than more invasive and extreme facial treatments, the results last longer and do not involve any harsh toxins or chemicals.
If doing microneedling and facial acupuncture in the same session, we recommend receiving treatments once a month. We can alternate microneedling and facial acupuncture sessions every 2 weeks.
Results from microneedling and facial acupuncture last for 5 years, but we recommend doing maintenance treatments every 3 months for longer lasting results.
